The play centres on Anne (McKee), whose children are grown and have lives and loves of their own. Spending hours alone, Anne has convinced herself that a weekend seminar in Leicester is a front for her husband Peter's affair.

French playwright Florian Zeller is also author of The Father, which formed part of the autumn 2014 Ustinov Studio season. The Mother, which premiered in 2011, was the winner of a Moliere Award, France's highest theatrical honour.

The Mother runs in Bath from 21 May to 20 June 2015. Click here for more information and to book tickets.
